Happy Easter!

Jan, Jo Mom, Me Judy John first row Jeanie Jerry Okay this picture was probly 1966. I don't know where Griff was, but my Dad must have been taking the picture, that's why he's not in it. This picture is actually Jerry's and Jeanie's First Communion , besides being Easter. They seemed to combine holidays with sacraments at our Church. Mother's Day was the same thing,Confirmations, First Communions, May crowning, they all ran together. I'm pretty sure Jo and Jan were in college,in the picture, Judy still in high school.

So Abe is having the Easter Bunny at his house this year. He really doesn't know who the Easter Bunny is, he really doesn't know who Santa Claus is. He's just going with the flow, and tries to react to things that he thinks the big people will like. Santa is cool, and gives everyone gifts , and ya gotta be good. Should I tell him that,Come on the Easter Bunny is a Lam-O Holiday guy. Who cares if you get hard boiled eggs. Abe doesn't even fully understand about Santa ....do you think Abe's gonna get that a bunny leaves eggs, and you look for a basket that has candy,and maybe a toy? Abe's not even comprehending that he's going to have a new brother.... and hello, that's giant. I think his parents should do a Santa, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy,and Thomas the Train conference to help him through this getting a little brother thing. It's going to be a rude awakening. Hello, he has been the main attraction for almost 3 years. Then this newbie comes along. What's up with that?

I just think for that first born it has got to be trauma, having someone else come along to share all the attention of your parents. For me, well I was just number five of eight. I guess for JoEllen it was tuff.For sure we all survived, and we all turned out okay, but there is always that time that you can never get back. That was the time that you were brand new and so special. I will make sure that Abe feels special for being my first Grandson. When my little grandson # 2 is born, I will make sure he knows how precious he is to us. Cause every kid makes a place in our lives, and changes who we are. So what the hell does that have to do with the Easter Bunny? Well, it's close to Easter and I am worried about my girl having her baby, and we're going to see them, and I'm worried that Abe will be okay with his brother, and I want Bri to have a healthy happy delivery, and I want Jake to be calm and healthy too. So here comes Easter, but what I'm really thinking about is my new grandson and their family and I know they will be wonderful.
